Description

If at some point there's interest in supporting Adobe PSD, in the past I've used this library: http://psdplugin.codeplex.com/

It's a full featured, pure .Net PSD library. It is the current Paint.Dot.Net plugin to load/save PSD, but the core of the library is stand alone and has no dependencies with Paint.Dot.Net

I used it in the past and it's quite complete and safe to use.

No repository file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reviewing the PSD support proposal and the referenced standalone psdplugin library to understand the expected scope. Done would mean a defined and implemented PSD load/save capability in ImageSharp, with appropriate project tests identified during investigation.
